Definitions
- Wrist watches have been a part of human culture and attire for quite a few decades, having first become popular in the 1920s. The first few models were simply pocket watches held in place by a strap out of necessity during times of war. Soldiers found it impractical to pull a watch from their pockets in the middle of a battle and started relying on wrist watches more frequently. As wrist watches became popular, their designs improved and evolved over time. Initial designs were entirely mechanical. The next generation models employed electronic mechanisms with quartz oscillators. Digital watches became an item in the 1970s, and since then, various models have surfaced to increase consumer demand, including calculator watches, waterproof watches, camera watches, GPS watches, and so on. Current fashion trends indicate that wrist watches are experiencing a comeback after losing some ground to smart phones and other devices.

- FIG. 5 illustrates an example directional backplane of FIG. 2 having a triangular shape
- FIG. 6 illustrates an example directional backplane of FIG. 2 having an hexagonal shape
- FIG. 7 illustrates an example directional backplane of FIG. 2 having a circular shape
- FIG. 8 is a flowchart for generating a 3D time view with a multiview 3D wrist watch in accordance with the present application.
- a multiview 3D wrist watch is disclosed.
- the multiview 3D wrist watch is capable of displaying time in 3D such that a user may view time as if floating in space.
- the wrist watch employs a unique directional backplane that is used to provide a light field in the form of directional lightbeams.
- the directional lightbeams are scattered by a plurality of directional pixels in the directional backplane.
- Each directional lightbeam originates from a different directional pixel and has a given direction and angular spread based on characteristics of the directional pixel. This pointed directionality enables directional beams to be modulated (i.e., turned on, off or changed in brightness) using a plurality of modulators and generate different 3D time views.
- the directional pixels are arranged in a directional backplane that is illuminated by a plurality of input planar lightbeams.
- the directional pixels receive the input planar lightbeams and scatter a fraction of them into directional lightbeams.
- a shutter layer is placed above the directional pixels to modulate the directional lightbeams as desired.
- the shutter layer may include a plurality of modulators with active matrix addressing (e.g., Liquid Crystal Display (“LCD”) cells, MEMS, fluidic, magnetic, electrophoretic, etc.), with each modulator modulating a single directional lightbeam from a single directional pixel or a set of directional lightbeams from a set of directional pixels.
- the shutter layer enables 3D time views to be generated, with each view provided by a set of directional lightbeams.
- the 3D time views may be in a single color or multiple colors as desired.
- the directional pixels in the directional backplane have patterned gratings of substantially parallel grooves arranged in or on top of the directional backplane.
- the directional backplane may be, for example, a slab of transparent material that guides the input planar lightbeams into the directional pixels, such as, for example, Silicon Nitride (“SiN”), glass or quartz, plastic, Indium Tin Oxide (“ITO”), among others.
- the patterned gratings can consist of grooves etched directly in or made of material deposited on top of the directional backplane (e.g., any material that can be deposited and etched or lift-off, including any dielectrics or metal). The grooves may also be slanted.
- each directional pixel may be specified by a grating length (i.e., dimension along the propagation axis of the input planar lightbeams), a grating width (i.e., dimension across the propagation axis of the input planar lightbeams), a groove orientation, a pitch, and a duty cycle.
- Each directional pixel may emit a directional lightbeam with a direction that is determined by the groove orientation and the grating pitch and with an angular spread that is determined by the grating length and width.
- the second Fourier coefficient of the patterned gratings vanishes thereby preventing the scattering of light in additional unwanted directions. This insures that only one directional lightbeam emerges from each directional pixel regardless of its output angle.
- a directional backplane can be designed with directional pixels that have a certain grating length, a grating width, a groove orientation, a pitch and a duty cycle that are selected to produce a given 3D time view.
- the 3D time view is generated from the directional lightbeams emitted by the directional pixels and modulated by the shutter layer, with modulated directional lightbeams from a set of directional pixels generating a given time view.
- Wrist watch 100 is a multiview 3D watch that displays time in a circular-like display with numbers placed around the display.
- Wrist watch 105 is a multiview 3D watch that displays time in a rectangular-like display with number digits indicating the time.
- Both wrist watches 100 - 105 show time in 3D time views such that a user may see time as if floating in space.
- a different time view may be perceived by the user; that is, the user views time in a natural and real manner much like the brain perceives visual information in 3D in the real world.
- the time views shown in wrist watches 100 and 105 may be of a single or multiple colors as desired. It is also appreciated that the 3D time views may be of different shapes, have different effects, and include other imagery besides the time. For example, the 3D time views may be shaded, outlined, patterned, and so on.
- the wrist watch displays may be rectangular, circular, polygonal, or any other shape that may be designed for a wrist watch.
- the time views may also include a logo for the wrist watch, background pictures, and other pictures to complement the time displayed.
- the 3D time views are generated with a unique directional backplane capable of generating directional lightbeams that are modulated by a shutter layer according to the time to be displayed in the 3D time view (e.g., 8:13 am, 10:34 pm, etc.).
- Wrist watch 200 includes a directional backplane 205 that receives a set of input planar lightbeams 210 from a plurality of light sources.
- the plurality of light sources may include, for example, one or more narrow-bandwidth light sources with a spectral bandwidth of approximately 30 nm or less, such as Light Emitting Diodes (“LEDs”), lasers (e.g., hybrid lasers), or any other light source used to provide illumination in a wrist watch.
- the input planar lightbeams 210 propagate in substantially the same plane as the directional backplane 205 , which is designed to be substantially planar.
- the directional backplane 205 may consist of a slab of a transparent material (e.g., SiN, glass or quartz, plastic, ITO, etc.) having a plurality of directional pixels 215 a - d arranged in or on top of the directional backplane 205 .
- the directional pixels 215 a - d scatter a fraction of the input planar lightbeams 210 into directional lightbeams 220 a - d .
- each directional pixel 215 a - d has patterned gratings of substantially parallel grooves, e.g., grooves 225 a for directional pixel 215 a .
- the thickness of the grating grooves can be substantially the same for all grooves resulting in a substantially planar design.
- the grooves can be etched in the directional backplane or be made of material deposited on top of the directional backplane 205 (e.g., any material that can be deposited and etched or lift-off, including any dielectrics or metal).
- Each directional lightbeam 220 a - d has a given direction and an angular spread that is determined by the patterned grating forming the corresponding directional pixel 215 a - d .
- the direction of each directional lightbeam 220 a - d is determined by the orientation and the grating pitch of the patterned gratings.
- the angular spread of each directional lightbeam is in turn determined by the grating length and width of the patterned gratings.
- the direction of directional lightbeam 215 a is determined by the orientation and the grating pitch of patterned gratings 225 a.
- this substantially planar design and the formation of directional lightbeams 220 a - d from input planar lightbeams 210 requires gratings having a substantially smaller pitch than traditional diffraction gratings.
- traditional diffraction gratings scatter light upon illumination with lightbeams that are propagating substantially across the plane of the grating.
- the gratings in each directional pixel 215 a - d are substantially on the same plane as the input planar lightbeams 210 when generating the directional lightbeams 220 a - d.
- the directional lightbeams 220 a - d are precisely controlled by characteristics of the gratings in directional pixels 215 a - d including a grating length L, a grating width W, a groove orientation ⁇ , and a grating ⁇ .
- the grating length L of grating 225 a controls the angular spread ⁇ of the directional lightbeam 220 a along the input light propagation axis
- the grating width W controls the angular spread ⁇ of the directional lightbeam 220 a across the input light propagation axis, as follows:
- ⁇ is the wavelength of the directional lightbeam 220 a .
- the groove orientation, specified by the grating orientation angle ⁇ , and the grating pitch ⁇ or grating period control the direction of the directional lightbeam 220 a.
- a shutter layer 230 (e.g., LCD cells) is positioned above the directional pixels 215 a - d to modulate the directional lightbeams 220 a - d scattered by the directional pixels 215 a - d .
- Modulation of directional lightbeams 220 a - d involves controlling their brightness with the shutter layer 230 (e.g., turning them on, off, or changing their brightness).
- modulators in the shutter layer 230 may be used to turn on directional lightbeams 220 a and 220 d and turn off directional lightbeams 220 b and 220 c.
- the ability to provide modulation for the directional lightbeams 220 a - d enables many different 3D time views to be generated, such as time view 240 .
- the modulators are controlled by clock circuitry 245 , which determines the time to be displayed in the wrist watch 200 and therefore determines which directional lightbeams 220 a - d to be turned on or off to produce the time view 240 corresponding to the time to be displayed in the watch 200 (e.g., 03:07 am).
- the shutter layer 230 may be placed on top of a spacer layer 235 , which may be made of a material or simply consist of a spacing (i.e., air) between the directional pixels 215 a - d and the modulators of the shutter layer 230 .
- the spacer layer 235 may have a width, for example, on the order of 0-100 ⁇ m.
- directional backplane 205 is shown with four directional pixels 215 a - d for illustration purposes only.
- a directional backplane in accordance with various examples can be designed with many directional pixels (e.g., higher than 100 ), depending on how the directional backplane is used (e.g., in a 3D display screen, in a 3D watch, in a mobile device, etc.).
- the directional pixels may have any shape, including for example, a circle, an ellipse, a polygon, or other geometrical shape.

- Each directional lightbeam is modulated by a modulator, e.g., LCD cell 325 for directional lightbeam 320 .
- the directional lightbeams scattered by all the directional pixels in the directional backplane 305 and modulated by the modulators can represent multiple image views that when combined form a 3D time view 360 .
- wrist watch 330 is shown with a directional backplane 335 consisting of a plurality of circular directional pixels (e.g., directional pixel 340 ) arranged in a transparent slab.

- a directional backplane may be designed to have different shapes, such as, for example, a triangular shape (as shown in FIG. 5 ), a hexagonal shape (as shown in FIG. 6 ), or a circular shape (as shown in FIG. 7 ).
- the directional backplane 505 receives input planar lightbeams from three different spatial directions, e.g., input planar lightbeams 510 - 520 .
- This configuration may be used when the input planar lightbeams represent light of different colors, e.g., with input planar lightbeams 510 representing a red color, input planar lightbeams 515 representing a green color, and input planar lightbeams 520 representing a blue color.

- the multiview 3D wrist watch enables a 3D time view to be generated so that a user views time as if floating in space.
- the directional lightbeams generated by the directional pixels can be modulated to produce any desired effect in the generated time views.
